- If you're looking to buy a trailer hitch or make an upgrade, I highly recommend you check out B&W Trailer Hitches! The 5" drop hitch featured in my video is the last one you'll ever buy. It's made of American Steel and manufactured in Humboldt, Kansas. If you check out the Amazon link, you'll see that this is the #1 top rated trailer hitch from April 2021. The reviews are incredible, mostly 4.9 stars!

Great review bud , just ordered mine today
Thanks, Franco! I'm very happy with this hitch and highly recommend it.
I might have to get one of these. My current hitch is a adjustable aluminum one. I recently needed to remove it after a year of being in. The steal pin was stuck. The pin had to be cut and beat out of it. I have a new pin covered in never-seez installed now. Not sure if that will stop the seizing.
Hard to say. Aluminum and steel seem to need a rubber barrier in my experience. I also have an aluminum hitch and the key is to not leave them touching for too long. If you use the hitch daily, I'd be interested to know how the never-seez works.
Just bought this exact one. Love it. One correction about the anti theft, it can be stolen. I used the 1st hole as indicated in the manual and the 2nd hole. I was able to get the swing arm portion off easily. Contacted the company and they are sending me the anti theft plate to fill the gap between the end of the receiver and the flat portion on the hitch. I have a 2019 Ram 1500 with a stock receiver.
Interesting, thanks for sharing. I'm very happy with mine as well!
Anti theft plate
Like to see it
So with so many pins how many locks do you need to keep from getting stolen
Great question, just the 1 lock pin that attaches to the vehicle. The rest of it is secured and doesn’t detach, it only adjusts.
Did you not watch the video?
It still sticks out but the real down side is it hangs down too low . It would tear the hell out of my driveway and worse on the dip on my driveway .
They also make a 3" drop that doesn't stick down as far. I went' with the 5" just to have that extra versatility.
Just got my. How does it perform for everyday use. I pull about 10k everyday.
I've been very happy with mine, it's very solid!
@@MarkThomasBuilder thanks. Yeah it’s heavy.
Which would you choose, the Andersen or the b&w? I had a b&w and it got stolen. I wasn’t a big fan of the double pin design honestly. Also didn’t like how heavy it was if I’m being honest. I found I didn’t even adjust it that much and just set it in a spot that both trailers would work just okay and that was that. I only even spun the ball around from 2 5/16 to 2 inch and back. I also noticed that after using it for 2 or so years, the hitch was starting to rust. That made me nervous as well. I ordered the Andersen aluminum a couple days ago and am looking forward to trying it out.
The Andersen has held up well for me and is much lighter. I can't say that I have a favorite, but like that the B&W can fold in. I used to camp with my truck, and my hitch always seemed to be a hazard when trying to walk around a tight camp sight.
Does the ball actually come out or just spin? Also, any idea if locking pins will fit through the adjustment holes?
The ball just spins, it doesn't come out from the hitch. The 3 locking pins are all the same size. The pin that holds the hitch to the vehicle is a different size though.
F150 which size is best 3, 5 or 7 inch drop?
I used to have a F150 but didn't have this hitch at the time. I'd say a 5 inch drop would work best.
Does it rattle around much while towing ?
I haven't noticed it with this one.
You're a Legend. Thanks for the Vid
Thanks man, you bet!👊
$240 not bad for one stout hitch
👍 It's heavy and very solid! You can see the fine craftsmanship that went into making this hitch.
personally I dont like that the dual ball only mounts with a single pin.
What brand do you like with dual pins?
